I'm skipping the interview part but thought it'd be interesting to post my ten titles. Perhaps you'd care to respond and include your own list? Could be kinda fun to compare notes.
I haven't included the Bible though it's first and foremost, and supercedes any such earthly compilation I might cobble together.
Ten Influential Titles

Pillar of Iron

ReplyDeleteI'd say my most influential are:
The Hiding Place - Corrie Ten Boom
Loneliness - Elisabeth Elliot
Hinds Feet in High Places - Hannah Hurnard
The Passion of Mary Margaret - Lisa Samson
Hitler's Cross - Erwin Lutzer
Through Gates of Splendor - Elisabeth Elliot
In His Steps - Charles Sheldon
The Zion Chronicles - Bodie Thoene
Many Holocaust memoirs that I can't even remember the names of.
I too have followed the Holocaust across the years . . . even purchased the mini-series of the same name (think '70s) recently. Curiously, I have yet to strap tight my courage and see 'Schindler's List.' What's with that?
